[QUOTE="bergmen, post: 1368962, member: 15189"] Can you post any close-up pictures of the fracture? I would highly recommend (if at all possible) to mechanically re-attach using screws or thin plates + screws. If it is repaired with adhesive, I am not sure it would be strong enough to absorb lateral loads. In the initial latching operation, that tab is loaded in compression but it still needs to be able to keep the bag latched onto the bike if exposed to any side loads. Dan [/QUOTE]
